6 years in practice

Hello, I am a trained Child Play Therapist who works with children ages 3-18 on processing and correcting behaviors due to trauma and/or behavioral health

I am looking forward to meeting with you and your child. I have been practicing in the foster care system for 6 years in a range of settings including case management, in-patient, and outpatient therapy. I enjoy working with clients ages 3-18. I approach treatment from a psychoeducation and strengths perspective using evidence-based strategies including play therapy, sand tray processing, and Trauma Focused CBT. I work with the caregivers and child to set goals to work on during the sessions.
